Michael Granberry, Arts Critic for The Dallas Morning News wrote, "In Pharmacist of Auschwitz, author Patricia Posner reminds us why we need to remember the Holocaust... Posner's book doubles as the spellbinding story of Nazi Germany's largest industrial conglomerate, I.G. Farben." The book was translated into sixteen foreign languages and sold in various countries,[4]. It was on The Wall Street Journal Nonfiction Bestseller list at number 6 on 21 January 2018.[5] Posner wrote The Pharmacist of Auschwitz after a meeting she and her husband, author Gerald Posner, had in 1985 in New York with Rolf Mengele, the only son of Nazi doctor Josef Mengele.[6][non-primary source needed]

Posner has worked on thirteen investigative books of nonfiction with her husband, Gerald Posner.[7] According to St. Petersburg Times she "works with him on his books and joins him in his interviews, but refuses co-author credit."[8][9] She has also written articles and profiles for national magazines, including Salon, The Huffington Post, and The Daily Beast. From 2005 to 2007, she was a columnist for Miami's Ocean Drive magazine.

In 2007, she was at the center of a controversy, regarding whether a journalist could express an opinion opposed to that of her publisher on a public issue. According to the New York Post, she was "fired for civic activism."[10] Her 2007 Wikinews interview sets forth the limits and risks for a journalist when it comes to disagreeing publicly with publishers.[11] Gerald Posner wrote about the controversy in The Huffington Post.[12][third-party source needed]

Posner has also been a commentator on television, NBC, MSNBC and FOX, regarding journalism careers.[13]
